Big Ideas Workshop: The Economics of Institutions: From Acemoglu to Before and Beyond

ICLE’s invitation-only Big Ideas Workshop series brings together early- and mid-career scholars to discuss important ideas in law & economics.

In this workshop, participants looked at the work of Nobel awardees Daron Acemoglu, Simon Johnson, and James Robinson alongside work in the New Institutional Economics school, to consider the history and ongoing importance of the relationship between institutions and the wealth of nations.

This is ICLE’s fourth year of Big Ideas Workshops. Prior workshops have looked at topics including the foundational work of Armen Alchian and Ben Klein, the law and economics of utility regulation, and the evolution of the understanding of the Theory of the Firm. These meetings are designed to be collaborative, informative, and fun.
